Siding Replacement: West University Place, Harris County
Sections or whole elevations — that is the short version of how JM Painting approaches siding replacement, and it does not change between West University Place and anywhere else we work. What does change is the house: wind-driven rain here finds any unflashed penetration, so flashing gets more attention than the siding itself, so the scope gets set on site.
Our Siding Replacement scope in West University Place
- New siding installed to the existing course lines
- Trim, corners and penetrations flashed and sealed
- Assembly primed and painted
- Failed siding removed and sheathing inspected
- Weather barrier repaired or replaced
With a 2023 Census estimate of 14,791 residents, West University Place is large enough that we see the same construction eras repeat: subdivisions built in runs, with the same details failing in the same order. Wind-driven rain here finds any unflashed penetration, so flashing gets more attention than the siding itself.
Set in Harris County, West University Place spans about 2.0 square miles with a population of 14,791 (2023 est.); Southside Place sits 0.5 miles away and Bellaire 1.9, both inside our coverage.
The process is deliberately boring. Estimate first, in person and free. Scope second, in writing. Then the siding replacement itself, and finally a walk of the finished work with you at your West University Place home before the job is called done.
